Okay, so I have a legit excuse why I'm still slow in updating. We were having some difficulties downloading photos to our iPhoto program since we had video clips on our camera as well. And some bug was preventing all the photos to download since there was a prob with the video part working with Quicktime Player. Anywho, I finally found a patch to fix it all up, so in the near future, I'll be able to include video clips on the blog as well!
In the meantime, here is what we were up to this past weekend in Oxford. Friday night was the 10th annual Oxford Beer Festival. It was held down in the city centre at the Town Hall. It was pretty much the same situation as the Eugene Beer Fest and I'm sure countless others. We paid 2 pounds to get in, 2 pounds for a 1/2 pint tasting glass (we could keep) and then another 5 pounds in tickets to purchase the different kinds of beer to try out. It was all still good 'ol warm flat English beer. But I do have to say that the smaller brewers in the area still brew very tasty warm flat beer with a strong flavor. So we did enjoy the tastings and it didn't take much to get a mean buzz going on!
We had met up with a number of Brian's colleagues from his office. There are a set of them who are the beer guzzlers of the group and of course they were mostly all there. Brian's advisor Ian was also along for a bit. I was the only WAG for most of the time, until Gemma arrived later on.
And as I usually close my posts by saying we ended up at the pub for a pint, I think we had enough pints at the Festival so we passed on the pub and stumbled home after getting some cheap chips (fries) to snack on the way!
